I'm so excited to announce that Canada is getting it's very own BB Cream! I had the opportunity to work with this product when I did the makeup for Isabelle (PR Director of Marcelle) and her colleague a few months back for the Marcelle/Annabelle Beauty Premiere and I was quite impressed! Read on to see the press release and a special offer just for you awesome readers!
PRESS RELEASE
January 2012
Marcelle® proudly introduces the first Canadian-made BB Cream formulated specially for Canadian women in pharmacies as well as mass retail stores! The Marcelle® BB Cream will be in stores on February 6, 2012.
BREAKTHROUGH INNOVATION
Inspired by a trend that perfected skin and enhanced complexions all over Asia, Marcelle® formulated its own BB Cream to cater the needs of Canadian consumers. This multi-purpose skin care cream is morethan a tinted moisturizer or simple make-up base. It perfects the skin to reveal a more even epidermis and well-hydrated, flawless complexion, all in one. Ideal for any age and any skin type, the Marcelle® BB Cream comes in two shades and is suitable for a wide variety of carnations thanks to its self-adjusting pigments that transform and adapt to skin tone.
What’s a BB?
Moisturizing skin care, tinted corrector and make-up base all in one, Marcelle® “BB” stands for Beauty Balm, as it truly enhances your natural beauty. We have also seen the expressions Blemish Base, Blemish Balm and Beauty Base.
How to use the Marcelle® BB Cream, in 3 different ways:
1) The Marcelle® BB Cream is a day cream which should be applied after the skin has been properly cleansed as a corrective tinted moisturizer. For a more intense moisture surge, the BB Cream may be applied on previously moisturized skin.
2) Use it alone or over your moisturizer to unify your complexion.
3) Use it as a make-up base under foundation for total coverage and improved stay-on power.
THE MULTI-TASKING SKIN ENHANCER!
BB Cream embellishes the skin of the girl who requires a basic moisturizer, it unifies the carnation of the woman who is looking to hide a few blemishes and it provides the ultimate coverage to the make-up user who follows it with her usual foundation! BB Cream takes on the role you want it to play!
